    So final fight of Hopkin's career, he bulks up and fights Wlad. Does he have winning potential?

    Way to difficult to get past that jab for Hopkins. He can't press like he used to and is too small.


    Now Ward on the other hand...:hey

    He would get murdered.

    And not, Knocked out in a couple of rounds murdered.

    I mean he would actually die in the ring

    hopkins cannot beat Dawson or Calzaghe or Taylor . How is he going to beat Vlad? He might be able to beat a mediocre handpicked guy like he has been beating.. When he fights the top guys he loses. This handpicking stuff works. People actually think the fighter is dominant.

    Are u crazy? Bernard does not have the dimensions to be a legitament heavyweight let alone bulk up and beat a very gd, big one. Even less at 48. Physically impossible and suicidal if Bernard were crazy and attempted it
